SUMMARY:Guest Artist Series: Leslie Howard
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nPERFORMER\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLESLIE HOWARD\n\n\n\n\n\n\n[mashshare]\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\nLudwig van Beethoven (1770 – 1827)\nSonata No. 13 in E flat Major Op. 27 No. 1\nI. Andante – Allegro – Andante\nII. Allegro molto e vivace\nIII. Adagio con espressione\nIV. Allegro vivace\n\n\nJohann Sebastian Bach (1685 – 1750) / Franz Liszt (1811 – 1886)\nVariations on a motif of Bach’s cantata ‘Weinen\, Klagen’ S180\n\n\nAnton Rubinstein (1829 – 1894)\nSonata No. 1 in E minor Op. 12\nI. Allegro appassionato\nII. Andante largamente\nIII. Moderato\nIV. Moderato con fuoco\n\n\n\nDuration\nThis concert will last approximately 60 minutes\, with no interval.\n\n\n\n\nBeginning with Beethoven’s Sonata una quasi fantasia No. 13 where movements are played one after another without a break and with each one composed in extreme contrast to the next\, Professor Howard highlights the composer’s creative process\, which started to break away from the typical structure of the classical sonata. Liszt’s deeply personal Variations on a motif of J S Bach’s ‘Weinen\, Klagen\, Sorgen\, Zagen’ dedicated to Anton Rubinstein offer a true feast of pianistic mastery and compositional prowess. Written in the same year as the death of Liszt’s daughter Blandine\, the variations end with a quote from the Lutheran hymn ‘Was Gott tut\, das ist wohlgetan’ (What God Ordains Is Always Good). Having released the world première recordings of all four of Rubinstein’s piano sonatas\, Leslie Howard concludes his recital with Sonata in e minor No. 1\, which to use his own words ‘is the product of a teenager who must have been quite a pianist already\, it is beyond criticism’. \n\n\n\nBOOK TICKETS\n\n\n[AIGetTwitterFeeds ai_username='PianoWeekFest' ai_numberoftweets='3' ai_tweet_title='Your Title']
